Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers remain at odds with each other. On the night of the draft, reports emerged that Rodgers wanted to leave the Green Bay Packers, after years of frustration with the franchise.

His most notable objection was the franchise’s decision to select quarterback Jordan Love in the draft last year to be his replacement. And so far, the two parties have found themselves in a cold war that Rodgers is seemingly winning.

Aaron Rodgers no-showed the Green Bay Packers’ OTA recently. Former NFL quarterback Dan Orlovsky spoke on ESPN about the current situation between the Packers and Rodgers.

He believes that Rodgers is coming out the victor right now because his teammates have begun to pick sides. Other players from the Packers offensive unit also didn’t appear for their sessions.

This means that players are bucking past traditions and getting involved in team vs player conflicts.

“Football is a team sport, but right now this is a 1-on-1 battle and Aaron Rodgers is winning it. It’s Rodgers pitted against his General Manager Brian Gutekunst. It’s not just that Rodgers is not there.

“His Top-5 reciever doesn’t show up. And that is very rare for the NFL because so often we ask players about off-the-field issues. Everybody hears this, I’m going to let that guy handle his business off the field. This is very different.” 

Aaron Rodgers has the upper hand on the Packers

Orlovsky added that the Packers’ other players picking sides in the conflict, especially that of Rodgers doesn’t bode well for the franchise.

Currently, the Packers have the difficult task of making sure that they can rebuild their relationship with Aaron Rodgers. But now, they also need to improve their relationship with the other players who have become upset with the franchise’s actions.
